    Verdict

    Deise Dynamo was a disappointment at Ascot last time having gone close at Sedgefield on his chasing bow. McCoy takes over the reins on Lingfield winner Young Hurricane and the latter could figure again, despite a 6lb rise, while Distime shaped well when runner-up at Aintree on his first start over fences though he's been off the track for over a year. Duke Of Monmouth has every chance having scored at Uttoxeter last month but he found SPANISH OPTIMIST too good over hurdles last season. A punt is taken on Tim Vaughan's charge coming out best again with a recent debut over fences under his belt.
